Texas Congresswoman Launches Campaign to Recruit NYPD Officers to Texas

Following the death of NYPD Detective Jonathan Diller, Rep. Beth Van Duyne encourages New York officers to move to Texas for a supportive environment.

• Rep. Beth Van Duyne (R-Texas) placed an ad in the New York Post, urging NYPD officers to relocate to Texas, citing the state's support for law enforcement and better quality of life.
• The campaign was inspired by the death of NYPD Detective Jonathan Diller, who was fatally shot during a traffic stop last month.
• Van Duyne criticizes New York's 'pro-criminal' politicians and claims that Texas offers a safer and more respectful environment for police officers.
• The congresswoman's effort mirrors a similar recruitment drive by Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, which successfully attracted hundreds of law enforcement officers nationwide.
• NYPD is currently facing a manpower shortage, losing over 200 officers a month, according to Police Benevolent Association President Patrick Hendry.
